BISS is on the throttle body.

The T is most likely for the boost guage.

I agree with Mike. An MBC would be on the other side of the engine bay anyway. What I find funny is that you bay looks that awesome and you don't have an MBC already :laugh:

Probably the fuel pressure solinoid.  Definately not a boost controller.
all go, no show!

is the boost gauge hooked onto the fpr side of the solenoid? thats not right. it should be on the manifold side.
